The map
Velikiye Luki stands on the Lovat River in the south of Pskov Oblast, and the river shapes almost everything on its map. The Lovat winds through the city in broad bends. Districts sit on either side of the water, and several bridges carry the main streets across. The effect is a city organised around a single flowing line.
Beside the river rise the earthen walls of the fortress, rebuilt in the early eighteenth century on the orders of Peter the Great. The angular outline of its bastions is still visible from above. The city is also remembered for the long battle fought there in the winter of 1942–43, a significant engagement on the northern part of the Eastern Front.
A Velikiye Luki map poster brings together the river's curves, the geometric fortress and the long straight lines of the railway, which made the city an important junction in the region. The old defensive core and the Soviet-era street plan together give a composition that is both historical and orderly.
The Lovat winds through the city in broad curves. It divides the city into districts linked by bridges and gives the poster a strong flowing line through its centre.
The bastioned earthworks of the old fortress form an angular outline beside the river. It is one of the most distinctive shapes on any town map in the region.
Several railway lines meet at Velikiye Luki. They cross the outskirts in long straight runs that frame the older districts and give the map structure.
